Forgive me for I have sinned

[No Powder]

Guess I need to put this thread here. Temptation over came me and I took the T/C to the last Rendezvous. Put the 40 cal. Green Mountain Barrel on it and used it on the trail walk. Sure I got second place and might of done better but was consummed with guilt. This gun is a, do I dare say it, a caplock. Now I usually take my Northwest Trade Gun 62 cal. smoothbore flinter a real gun, but I am usually the only one at this Rondy who brings a smoothbore. So I gave in to temptation and took the rifle caplock. My Question is what do I do for penance? What was I thinking? To make things worse 2 smoothbores showed up because they were sure I would have mine. :nono: :cry:

Send all of your flint locks to me, they must be riddled with jealousy by now...

I couldn't believe what I was reading, what next, tg becomes the moderator of the inline section??? :haha: :haha: :haha:

Hey, you're human, so you took a caplock, it will make you appreciate your flintlocks all the more next time...

 

what next, tg becomes the moderator of the inline section???

Hey, why not I second that!!!!!!!! :blah: :: :: ::

Are we getting to the point where even using a caplock is taboo?
I admit that I have shunned inlines but to think it's a sin to use a caplock is preposterous.
Can't we all just get along!? :cry:
Next thing you know we will see folks arguing that a matchlock should be the only thing used.
Maybe we should light our powder by rubbing two sticks together.
BTW, If you don't want that caplock send it to:
Huntin'
P.O. Box 12345
My Town, USA
:blah:

Terrible ain't it? :shake:
Simular thing happened to me. At local 3-D archery shoots I started shooting "Bare Bow" (Compound shot like trad., no sights, off shelf, fingers, etc.) and after about 6 mos. it was just me and anouther gal in the event. Next year I swithced to the trad Longbow. Wouldn't you know it, next year, the first shoot brought 7 others because they "like my style"! :curse:
I stayed with the Longbow.

O-A-H, not making sumtin outa nuttin are you! ::

OK, LET'S SEE IF I HAVE THIS STRAIGHT. SO I HAVE TO USE A CAPLOCK RIFE TO HUNT WATER FOWL FOR 10 MINUTES. OK but I am not sending my flinters to Musketman. :curse: He must have done somting real bad to have to wear that sack all the time. As for being banned from the trail walks, I can use the time to practice my POWER resting.
Thanks for all the fun replies.

P.S. Maybe I'll just use a sling shot. Traditional of course. :applause:
